October 2020 Post Exam Wait Period - Welcome to the Suck

[TwistedLeague]

Agreed, I was feeling confident after the morning but the afternoon is why I am so worried. it.

Exactly how I felt. I was a complete 180 from the time I took it in 2019.

Sorry. Didn't know that was a rule. I cannot edit but I will try to delete?

It's part of the agreement you sign when you sign up for the exam. I've tagged one of the mods, lemme try another @Road Guy

I revised my comment.  I wasn't sure if that was in violation or not, but better safe than sorry.

how do you revise? It wont let me revise mine.

honestly, it wasn't anything like the material I studied. It was so

New users are prevented from editing their posts. We often get spammers who will create an innocent post and go back and edit it to turn in into spam and get passed the filters.

I think after you make a certain number of posts... or maybe get a certain number of reactions... you get the ability to edit. 

So right now a mod will have to do it.

You should be able to click the ellipses in the top right hand corner of your comments to edit.

Can anyone confirm in the states that the PE results were released if the SE were release as well?

NCEES personnel periodically monitor these boards and people have gotten in serious trouble in the past for posting questions on here. I think you're okay, but I wouldn't post anything more than this for future reference.

The conceptual questions were brutal

That should be fine.

You agree not to reveal the exam or any question in part or in whole. So there's some grey area. But NCEES doesn't want questions to get out, so I'd say NEVER talk about specific questions. NCEES does monitor these boards and at least once invalidated someone's exam for something they said here.

I know Iowa SE has not released.

 

[RBHeadge PE]

PE and SE releases are exclusive of each other. I'm not aware of the SE being released yet.

On the Electrical Electronics, Controls, and Comms. test there was a problem that required a very obscure table that I've never seen in a textbook and wasn't in the Camera manual either. I can't see anybody getting that one right without getting lucky on a guess. So yeah there are some oddballs out there for questions. We can only study what we've seen in the past.

 

[FlangeheadPEAZ]

No such thing as late. You do the exam on your own timetable, not anyone else's.

Take some deep breaths and try to decompress before thinking about another attempt, okay?

Yes I will try again... thanks everyone for kind words but it just sucksss so bad right now I want scream and beat someone up....I guess I have moved to anger now from sad/upset mode. 

 

[MadamPirate PE]

Just a reminder folks, you signed a piece of paper saying you wouldn't discuss the exam problems. NCEES is online right now, and does watch these threads. 

Please don't use this thread to talk about exam questions, we don't want you to get fined or not be able to take an exam in the future. 

 

[NCAirman88]

NC results are in.  Passed.  I knew it would be close.  It could have been by one point.  I'll never know.  Never again will I have to put my duties as spouse, father, and employee on the back-burner to get ready for this insane 8-hour exam.  Hallelujah!  Where's the Tylenol!?!?

 

[RBHeadge PE]

Perhaps I need to be blunt. 

Do NOT discuss exam problems here, or anything that even remotely looks like an exam problem. There is an NCEES employee who is monitoring this thread in real time. I assume none of you want to have your exam results voided for violating the candidate agreement?

Do you mind me asking what discipline you took and score you received?
